That guy is awesome for providing a lot of research on a lot of topics applicable to my project. I have read a good deal of his stuff. The pre-oiler he was talking about is what I was doing with those aluminum accumulators in my build thread. I read awhile back that the majority of engine wear and tear is the metal on metal right when you start up a cold engine, hence the accumulator. I am also planning on running a heat wrap on the accumulator to preheat the oil. He really needs to write up a good article on 4 link theory. It's a very challenging subject with a lot of confusion, contradiction, and misinformation.
Awesome read.... thx Billy
